Mangrove restoration is a strategic step in maintaining fisheries sustainability and biodiversity, aligned with efforts to achieve SDG 15 (Life on Land). This study aims to examine global research trends related to mangrove restoration and its impact on fisheries productivity for the period 2022–2025 through a bibliometric and systematic review approach. The methods used include bibliometric analysis of scientific publications from international databases to identify research patterns, author collaborations, and key keywords. This study is followed by a systematic review to synthesize empirical findings related to the relationship between mangrove restoration and fisheries productivity. The study results show that mangrove restoration consistently increases fish stocks, strengthens coastal ecosystem resilience, and supports biodiversity recovery. Furthermore, the integration of local knowledge in restoration planning and implementation has been proven to enhance long-term success prospects and strengthen community involvement. These findings underscore the importance of expanding the scale of mangrove restoration globally, adopting participatory approaches, and strengthening the synergy between science and local wisdom to support the sustainability of fisheries resources and achieve SDG 15 targets. Thus, mangrove restoration not only contributes to environmental preservation but also to the sustainable improvement of coastal community welfare.
